​ My friends and family laughed when I told them I wanted to run. Why would any “regular” person run for President? The scrutiny, the cost, and the stress of a campaign and (hopefully) of serving as President is an enormous price to pay. Why not just let someone else do it? This is my answer: I am extremely concerned about our country’s direction, our future, our children’s future, and the kind of world they will inherit. "If not me, who, if not now, when." I firmly believe that it is our responsibility to ensure the world they inherit is a far better world than the one we grew up in. I’m committed to advocating for policies that promote fiscal responsibility and personal accountability. I believe in the constitution, that we are all created equal, and are endowed  with the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. We need to work together utilizing common sense to create a better country not only for US, but also for future generations. *Quote, Emma Watson during her 2014 HeforShe campaign kick-off.
  • George Washington warned against the proliferation of political parties. He believed that these parties could divide the nation. Washington told the American public that political parties would lead to politicians putting the interests of the party over the interests of the country.
  • Soon we will be spending more on the deficit interest than we currently spend on national defense per year. This is unsustainable, and our children deserve better. It’s time to take a hard look at how we’re spending our money and start making common - sense, sustainable investments in our future.

    America is not broken our two party system is broken.!.

    Vote NO, stop spending money we don't have.
  • We must enact balanced budget legislation and implement common-sense fiscal policies to ensure that our government spends our money effectively and efficiently. America is not broken our two party system is broken.!. Vote NO, stop spending money we don't have.
Our two party politicians do not know how to say no to deficit spending. I understand why, it is a difficult topic. We need to address now for our children. Vote NO, stop spending money we don't have.
Service, is the cornerstone of a politician's role.
Prioritizing service ensures politicians focus on the public good and are accountable for their actions.
Upholding and defending the Constitution: The President takes an oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution, ensuring that the laws of the country are faithfully executed.
I have been an entrepreneur / small businessowner since I was 24 years old.
2. I would form a coalition cabinet of the likeminded democrats, republicans and independents that would address the budget and deficit spending. By uniting a diverse group of leaders around this common goal, we can demonstrate a commitment to fiscal responsibility and build momentum for addressing the nation's growing debt, while protecting our less fortunate citizens
My opponents avoid addressing budget and deficit spending due to the political risks involved. Making the necessary adjustments can be unpopular with voters. Additionally, politicians may be influenced by special interest groups that benefit from the current spending patterns. As a result, politicians frequently prioritize short-term political gains over long-term fiscal responsibility, contributing to the persistent problem of deficit spending.
A strong national defense is the foundation upon which every other aspect of our society and economy rests. Without a well-funded, well-equipped military, everything else is rendered moot.
Executive orders should be used sparingly.
No more than a three percent deficit of the previous year’s GDP should be allowed in the federal budget, by law. We must enact balanced budget legislation and implement common-sense fiscal policies to ensure that our government spends our money effectively and efficiently.
Financial transparency and government accountability are of paramount importance in maintaining the integrity and effectiveness of democratic institutions.
